ActiveCampaign far exceeds SharpSpring in almost every way. It has a much cleaner interface and is much easier to use. SharpSpring was very glitchy for us, especially the email creator/editor. SharpSpring also costs more than double that of ActiveCampaign. And SharpSpring's …
ActiveCampaign is much more affordable and has just the right amount of features for my business size and stage. It is well supported and widely used so getting help is not a struggle.
ActiveCampaign is one of the most robust marketing automation platforms available today and allows us to integrate with virtually all other marketing tools in our tech stack. When vetting a marketing automation software to support our clients, we did not like that other larger …
ActiveCampaign really focuses on making the fundamental marketing automation functionality easy to use. It doesn't have as many enterprise features or customization, but that is clearly intentional. For small to mid-sized businesses, those enterprise features get in the way …
We use multiple "marketing automation" products, and each one has its pluses and minuses. For us, ActiveCampaign is perfect for smaller companies who want to start with marketing automation. Or want to have a good base. The other tools have a lot more options and …
ActiveCampaign is the budget option, no doubt. There isn't a single other tool even near it in price that offers anywhere near the level of tools that ActiveCampaign offers.
However, just because it's really inexpensive, don't let that lead you to think its a "cheap" tool. They …
SharpSpring is better than ActiveCampaign and MailChimp, but not as good as Hatchbuck and HubSpot. If you're ok with investing more into a CRM and a centralized platform, go with HubSpot. If looking you're looking to spend less but still have a reliable, user-friendly tool that …
SharpSpring has much better sales management and reporting functionality over ActiveCampaign which makes it a much better choice for my business and my clients. From a pricing perspective, when you start to add more contacts and send more emails the costs becomes equivalent so …
We use SharpSpring, ActiveCampaign, Omnisend, and Klaviyo for different clients. If you're looking for a solution that works well with ecommerce, I would go with Omnisend or Klaviyo. If you are looking for something for other types of businesses SharpSpring and ActiveCampaign …
ActiveCampaign is a solid email marketing platform that includes many automation features. Sharpspring is more of a fully featured marketing automation as opposed to an email marketing platform with automation features. We chose to move to Sharpspring as it included …
HubSpot and Act-On have about the same capabilities. HubSpot has a much more expensive price model and Act-On is less expensive than HubSpot but even though more expensive. The user interface is not as clear as in SharpSpring and SharpSpring has a better integration with CRM. Ac…
We use different CRMs for different clients, mostly due to budget and other requirements. SharpSpring from Constant Contact is in the middle, price-wise, but is slightly more user-friendly than ActiveCampaign when it comes to certain things, such as drip campaigns and …
SharpSpring is the best All in One CRM. It's not just a CRM for email management and that's what's important to us! The support is better in SharpSpring and it's getting more and more effective!
SharpSpring was the most cost effective of the solutions we evaluated. They were also the only one who offered a white label solution that we could offer to our clients
The price/quality relationship is really good! It has a lot of features that are charged separately or are more expensive in other platforms and the prices are easier to predict than other ones, where multiple variables can change the price and make it really hard to predict …
The Hubspot sales strategy is based on hardsales. And a way of low starting price (free crm) but a large price if you realy want to use it. Most people are not able to aline all teams in a company before starting with marketing and sales automation. So the software is only what …

There are 2 tiers of marketing automation software. Highly customizable, feature rich enterprise applications, and out of the box simpler solutions for smaller businesses. SharpSpring is unique in that is offers enterprise feature sets at the small business price point.
SharpSpring's customer service blows the competition out of the water. They are an integral part of your success with SharpSpring. I've never had such great customer success teams that are always going out of their way to make sure the solution they provide is the right one.
SharpSpring has by far the best features for the money. Having used several platforms costing significantly more money, I will go with SharpSpring every day of the week and twice on Sunday.
We use Salesforce and I would still go with SharpSpring over Pardot for cross-platform …
I've worked with HubSpot, Adobe, Marketo, Pardot and a myriad of other digital marketing tools. I've used tools that cost 1-2 million a year, spent months on integrations. I've honestly never found a tool that is so capable, so easy to implement, and does not require 6 figures …
For me it is all about the level of support provided and the services that help us to get where we need to be. Without the stellar support, it does not matter what they have to offer. This is the best customer focused agency I have ever dealt with in the nearly 30 years of …
When we started to search for a total Marketing Automation platform in 2016 we were afraid of the expensive prices for a limited license to users. We tried different platforms very well known like HubSpot, but as we needed characteristics the price started to be a problem …
SharpSpring promises all but nothing complete. They build a software that you have to hire them to do all the things it should do. They have 3 levels of Certification: Silver, Gold and Platinum. I am Gold and the implementation of the software requires coding knowledge. The …
Overall, I have tested more applications. If there is one thing that sticks out with SharpSpring, it is price and the quality you get for the price. If you buy SharpSpring, you get everything you can see, no add-ons afterward or limits. (Well 100,000 leads and 25,000 emails …
Better at maintaining clients and using as a Marketing Agency. A few more features with a little less customization in some areas like workflow builders. However, the API is way better in my opinion and has a native Salesforce Integration. The CRM is less than agile, but the …
I selected SharpSpring due to the value. While most of the products I evaluated and/or have used have much of the same functionality, you often have to purchase a bigger package or more user licenses to allow the entire team to have the functionality. As well, the limits on the …
Before making the decision to buy ShaprSpring we made a comparative chart among many solutions, but these did not have much difference with respect to SharpSpring. It had very similar characteristics but the cost was lower for SharpSpring. First we called HubSpot to ask for …

SharpSpring provides a more sophisticated approach than some of the other systems that we've used. It is worth mentioning that every tool changes very regular these days and I realize some of the tools I've used previously have evolved since I last used them so a comparison may …
In terms of functionality, SharpSpring and Active campaign are very similar; However, our company chose to make the switch to SharpSpring because of its very affordable price point, the quality of the product, and the unmatched quality of the SharpSpring support staff.
